Is anyone else sad that the traditional American car show will die with the boomer generation?

I've lived in several states and enjoyed seeing cool cars at many local shows but the story is always the same...the median age of attendees is in the 60's and climbing. Petrolheads are fewer and fewer as a percentage of the motoring population. So many 20 and 30 somethings into Uber, or if they do drive they're obsessed with empeegees and/or fawn over Tesla.

What do you think we have, 10 more years, tops, of cozy local shows with 1950s pop music, grilled dogs and burgers, and ice cold soda from a cooler :(? Hold me..

Boomers are the reason why the current generation isn't financially stable enough to own cars even if they wanted to. Go ahead and thank them for ruining everything for everyone the next time you see them.

there's a difference between cars and coffee and some late night car show and some sunday evening boomer american car show. Both California and Connecticut are coastal states have loads of people with $$$$

you won't only see new exotic cars but lots of rare vintage cars that you'll usually only see on the internet. Pic related, saw this pulling out of my local cars n coffee in Connecticut.

Also these Cars and Coffee meets are super early in the morning on the weekend and no ricers are getting up that early. But go ahead and keep projecting your shitty state, its not my fault you live in a flyover state

Can confirm for CT. there's always car shows going on early in the AM on Sat./Sun filled with classic muscle as well as antique cars from manufactures long gone (Corbin's)

Na, the thing about life is it is one cycle

The young people need to do the same shit as the boomers and have the other people in 30+ years pay for the system to function....

Boomers are to blame, but you're a fucking idiot if you think this isn't normal or the natural way of life

These old farts have done the same fucking thing for half a century. I haven't even witnessed half that time and I'm already god damn tired of it. It's not even about the cars, it's just gloating about muh golden days where everyone lived beyond their means, thought nothing could ever go wrong and set the stage for the clusterfuck that is the present.
>>
>>17785993
goddamn it would've been good to live with no repercussions though, going wide open on every last ounce of opulence you could knowing full well when you get to death age the world will have advanced enough that you'll still be alive to consume on others' dime, and you'll be worm food before it goes to shit for real.

I go to a local meet every friday and saturday to talk to people my own age without boomers presence because they're asleep or something and without them trying to capitalize on the situation as they normally do.

they're doing cars and coffee as well

Once the boomers die the market will be flooded with classic cars that grandpa paid 70k for and no one cares about anymore. Then maybe I'll actually be able to own a 'Cuda.

Only boomers can afford nice cars so yes.

Millenials can barely finance Hot Hatch meme ecoboxes like the FiST.

Feminism is why. When women actually started entering the workforce the cost of labor began to go down naturally. When they started embracing muh freedoms and voting more, economic policies became tainted by their irrationality.

ideally, we would have had gender equality. from a 100% male workforce, 50% of women enter the workforce and 25% of men leave it. women become educated in the culture of the breadwinner and develop their beliefs accordingly.

that's not what happened.

daddy's princess went to work because she wanted to feel good about herself, said no to overtime, didn't ask for a raise, and went home and felt bad about homeless people even though they just need to get a fucking job or kill themselves for being mentally ill subhumans.
>>
>>17786212
You don't see them around because almost nobody knows about them, half the people who hear about them assume they're expensive and unreliable because they're italian, and half the people who do know about them think it's a scooter brand or ducati for poor people and the social equivalent of riding a suzuki.

> Jews objectively did nothing wrong.

Hi schlomo, what's got you puckered, run out of foreskin to eat? But at the same time, boomers represent the generation that did not have to sacrifice en masse for war, and was bribed hardest by the Jew to allow immigration which fucks housing prices and wages. So he's, fuck boomers.

I'm any case I think it will come back into play in 10 or 20 years. Like people are rediscovering good food, they will rediscover neat cars and other crafted items.

thats awesome but at the same time you still live in Florida.

And Connecticut emission laws aren't as bad as California and California isn't as bad as you think if you have money.

>You will never go to CA or CT and see a 2000hp UGR Aventador

I dont care about a 2000hp Aventador and neither do most people here.

>Retired boomers from New York also show up in cracked out big block nitrous musclecars

Connecticut Caffeine and Carbs generate people from the surrounding area of New Canaan. All of these tend to be WASP's from CT/NY/NJ. And boatloads of rare European cars show up. Alfa Romeo GTV's, Lamborghini Miura, Lancia 037, Ferrai F40, Porsche 918 Spyder, McLaren F1/P1, Ferrari LaFerrari, Pagani Huyra and a bunch of other cars from other countries as well.

You have shit taste in cars which is why a 2000hp Aventador impresses you. Not surprising.
